Findmypast - no newspaper images

Post by ireneblackburn » 14 Sep 2015 08:04

Is anyone else having problems seeing newspaper images in Findmypast? Since Saturday afternoon whenever I click to see an image it gives me an error message. I have reported it (twice) but had no acknowledgement.

Yes, I am getting the same message in Internet Explorer and Firefox and Chrome.
But it sometimes follows up with:
This space unintentionally left blank (404 Not Found).
or
Hmm, this doesn't appear to be a valid Deep Zoom Image.

The Download Page button at the top works OK to download a PDF.
